Method & notes
State counts are useful for ecosystem scale, but an actual site decision still needs local restaurants/cafés, rent, footfall and customer demand.
METHOD & LIMITATIONSHow the numbers were calculated
PulseKita transcribes DOSM's published state establishment counts for food services, event catering and beverage services.
- Includes food services, event catering and beverage services.
- Counts establishments, not brands or companies.
- A higher count can indicate both stronger demand and heavier competition.
